This revolutionary tech completely transforms how people use their devices and interact digitally. Whether that&#8217;s on an iPhone keyboard or in VR, haptics provide valuable feedback to the user to aid with immersion or UI challenges. Here\u2019s how it works and what users can expect when using it.&nbsp; What is haptic feedback? Haptic feedback is a technology that uses different sensations to simulate physical interactions. It can go in everything from a wearable vest to a joystick. Most companies use it in apps and virtual reality (VR) games, but it can do so much more than that.\u00a0 Although this tech sounds futuristic, it\u2019s been around for decades \u2014 and not just in the research and development way. It\u2019s been a part of everyday technology for years. For instance, Google added haptic feedback to its keyboard in 2019. You\u2019ve probably used it before without realizing it. How does haptic feedback work? Image: Pexels Haptic feedback technology can use sensors, motors, speakers, electrodes, and actuators to simulate physical sensations. The exact combination changes depending on the kind of device you use. Here are the different types of haptic feedback: Temperature: Actuators use your body\u2019s temperature to heat up or cool down in specific spots. Imagine VR with this kind of tech \u2014 you could feel the chill of space or the warmth of a flaming sword.
